The most common disease to genius is nympholepsy the saddening for a spirit that the world knows not. Ah! how those outward disappointments which should cure, only feed the disease! The dinner at Saville's was gay and lively, as such entertainments with such participators usually are.

A terrible malady is she, a malady the ancients knew of and called nympholepsy a beautiful name evocative and symbolic of its ideal aspect, "the breast of the nymph in the brake."

You, tall Ligurian Simonetta, loved of Sandro, mourned by Giuliano and, for a seasons by his twisted brother and lord, have done well to utter but one side of your wild humour? The side a man would take, struck, as your Sandro was, by a nympholepsy, or, as Lorenzo was, by the rhymer's appetite for wherewithal to sonnetteer?

When the show was over he abandoned Miss Clampett on her door-step and went to his own boarding-house in a nympholepsy. He was a mortal wedded to a fairy. He was Endymion with a moon enamoured of him. Kedzie indeed had come down from the screen to Gilfoyle, clothed in an unearthly effulgence.

We marvel not that George's footsteps lingered there! How often have we martyrs to a hopeless nympholepsy strayed through that piazza, at the self same hour there deemed that the heart would break but never thought that it might slowly wither.

In a spot which in the nature of its divine fascination could be found only beneath one sky, that sky the most balmy and loving upon earth! Who could think of love within the haunt and temple of "That Nympholepsy of some fond despair," and not feel that love enhanced, deepened, modulated, into at once a dream and a desire?

As the wayworn traveller who on some bright day sat down by the fringed bank of clear fountain or silver lake, and while he leant to look into its waters, was suddenly dazzled into madness by the flashing upwards upon him, from the unknown depths, of some startling image; so Bruce, as he rested by the dusty wayside of life, and gazed into the dark abysses of recollection, was startled and horrified, with a more fearful nympholepsy, by the crowding images and sullen glare of unforgotten and half-forgotten sins.

The whole army of the studio stood meanwhile at ease, drawing salary and waiting for Ferriday to remember his day's program and give the order to go ahead. But he was busy with his new story, in the throes of nympholepsy, seeing visions, hearing voices. Kedzie sat in a marble expectancy, Galatea watching Pygmalion create her and prepare to bring her to life. She had never lived. She realized that.
